I’m all for nutritional balancing. I’m using that tool right now too.
What irked me is how you discredited my original hyperventilation post so that you could promote a web article that you wrote.
90% of your posts contain links to a site that you are an editor for....so it seems like it is about self promotion
Self promotion on Curezone is against the terms by the way...and for good reason. Because people might post something purely for self interest, rather than trying to help people.....such as descrediting someone else's well researched post for their own gain.
Did you even read the article I posted on how hyperventilation reduces cerebral blood flow? Or did you just see anxiety in the title and figured it was a good chance to post a link to one of your articles?
There are many many studies and articles on Pubmed discussing the connection of hyperventilation to anxiety and panic attacks, as well as the effectiveness of breath retraining in reducing panic attacks.
Before I started nutritional balancing, breath retraining reduced my anxiety and panic attacks by about 80%. And nutritional balancing is helping too.

Here is a link that shows how hyperventilation, as measured by CO2 levels, results in reduced cerebral blood flow.

Reduced cerebral blow flow to higher centers of the brain, such as the pre-frontal cortex is associated with worry and anxiety.
